Chloe's Pov:

I attempted an apology to the younger version of my mom for shattering the vase: "I'm so sorry." She snapped at me, "Sorry doesn't get me ungrounded, doesn't it?" Her tone made me flinch. She furiously told me, crouching to clean the broken parts of the vase I had broken, "So next time, don't be such a princess." Then I felt a tear attempting to break free, so I sobbed as I hurried from the house.

Red's Pov:

I decided to chase after Chloe as she immediately ran out of the house while crying. Afterward, I discovered her sobbing while sitting around the stairs with her head resting on her lap. Since I was the one getting comforted by my friend Maddox, I didn't know how to comfort someone, so I thought to myself, "Shit, what do I do." I just braced myself mentally and sat by her side because I still don't know what to do.

I was just about to say something, but she beat me to it. "I don't know what to do, Red." Which made me confused because I don't know which part she is indicating. "Which part? The one where your mom just snapped at you or the part where you don't know how to save your mom?" I asked while she lifted her head up, her tear visible. I don't know what came over me because I found myself wiping her tears away.

She explained, "Kinda both, because, like, how is she still my kind, sweet mother in the future despite living in that kind of household. I don't know how she handles it." Her explanation made some sense, I suppose.

"Because you will save her, and she will still be your loving mom." She just smiled at me, which made my cheek warm. "I'm not sure how my step-cousin lives with my step-grandmother, but I believe she will change—I just need to wait for that moment," she stated confusing me, but I didn't push the issue. Then I raise myself up and hold out my hand to her, gesturing for her to take it.

Chloe's Pov:

Then Red gets on her feet and holds out her hand to me. She spoke to me after I had just been staring at her for a short while.

"Come on, Princess."

Then, blushing, I took her hand carefully and continued to stare at her. She started pulling me gently and said, "Come on, we got to go to the Black Lagoon."

"Oh no, I'm falling in love."
